See each transaction behind the total
The report expands an account's period movement into transaction-level rows with date, description, debit, credit and a running balance that starts from the account's opening balance.
Accounting
Trace an account total back to the transaction that created it
The General Ledger is the transaction-level companion to Invoice Crowd's financial statements. Filter an account and period, review debit and credit movement, and follow source-aware links where the originating record is available and belongs to the selected business.

How it works
From statement total to source-level evidence
The ledger keeps each transaction line visible with its account and where it came from. When a source is unavailable or foreign, the report omits an unsafe edit link rather than opening the wrong record.
Read the account
Dates, descriptions and classified movement line by line.
Filter by account and period
Choose the business, account and date range that belongs in the review. The ledger computes the selected view live rather than serving a separately maintained report cache.
Follow the source
Open the source that actually owns the record.
Navigate to an eligible source editor
A standalone expense can open its owned expense editor, while an invoice-managed item goes back to the source invoice. The same link-to-source rule applies across the supported reports.
No unsafe fallback for a missing source
If the source document is unavailable, foreign or only a preserved sentinel, Invoice Crowd leaves out the edit link instead of guessing which editor should open.
Export and interpret
Carry the filtered evidence into a review without overstating it.
Export PDF or Excel
The ledger provides the established export formats for the current report context. Keep the selected filters with the review so a later reader knows what the totals cover.
A ledger view does not repair its sources
The report makes recorded activity inspectable; it does not validate every historical posting, create a balancing entry or rewrite a document when the ledger looks wrong.

Questions
General Ledger, answered
What is the General Ledger in Invoice Crowd?
Invoice Crowd's General Ledger is a transaction-level report of account movement for the selected business and period. It shows the dates, descriptions, debits and credits behind an account total, starting from the account's opening balance and keeping a running balance.
Can I open a source document from the General Ledger?
Where the source exists, belongs to the selected business and has a safe editor mapping, Invoice Crowd can link a ledger row back to that source. Missing or foreign sources receive no guessed fallback link.
Can I export the General Ledger?
Yes. Invoice Crowd exports the current General Ledger as a PDF or an Excel file.
Does the General Ledger update when I change a source record?
The report is computed from the current recorded data, so a valid source change can affect the next report load. Opening the report itself does not mutate the source.
Is the General Ledger the same as the Trial Balance?
No. The Trial Balance summarizes debit and credit movement by account; the General Ledger shows the transaction-level rows behind those account totals.
Does Invoice Crowd automatically repair a suspicious ledger row?
No. The General Ledger is evidence for review. Correct the factual source through its normal workflow or use the controlled accounting audit and repair process when historical integrity is involved.
